I concur with klein that you should send them back. My dad has his old drum set packed away and getting all dusty in his storage room. He hasn't played it for years and maybe never will again. But there's a lot of good memories that go along with it for him. Not to mention the potential of an appreciation in value. I could imagine he'd be pretty bummed/annoyed if someone stole it, regardless of how the perpetrator justified their actions.

Sure, a drum set is arguably a bigger 'thing' than a few records, but in principle it's the same. Just because someone doesn't actively use something, it doesn't mean it's not of value to them.
